Dear people,
We live on the planet Earth. We share our planet with animals and plants, but we don’t think about them. Animals live in different habitats. Forests, oceans, and seas are animals’ homes. Trees give us oxygen, but we cut trees. We cut trees, so pandas, tigers, and monkeys lose their habitats. We catch animals and keep them in zoos. They are not happy there and they want to go home. They want to live in forests, oceans, and seas. We throw plastic to oceans and seas, so we pollute the water. Fish and turtles live in dirty water. They eat plastic and die. Some people cannot find clean water in some countries. We shouldn’t pollute water. We should save it. The Earth is our home! What are we doing to our home? We have one planet to live on, so we should protect it. We should stop before it’s late!
